Good insight; yes this is true. By choosing your own strategy you may improve or worsen your chances compared to following hints.
Interesting! I ran a greedy algorithm (...), and (...) haven't been able to win more than 7% of the games (which would be a 23% house edge). (...) is your greedy solver better than mine? If I follow your hints, what % of the games will I win? If the difference in greedy algorithms is the difference between a 23 and 2% house edge, it seems quote possible that something more optimal will put you in -EV territory? TL;DR: hints are based on solver recommendations. our solver has a >9.8% win chance on the 10x game (vs. 7% for yours). A better solver would put us in -EV. --- A 10x payout after commission implies a 10.204x payout before commission, which implies a 9.8% chance of winning. Our solver gets at least those implied rates over a statistically relevant number of games. By the way, we are working on ways to make those numbers independently verifiable without giving away the solver code. This is not an easy task, but we want to as transparant as possible. |

Thank you ! Much fun  No way to compare that with satoshimines or the others ... they have nothing to do with minesweeper. You could as well just throw some balls in a bag and take one out each time. Is that minesweeper then ? Guess not |

Is that minesweeper then ? Guess not Hi 2ero, good you liked it and thanks for the valuable review you sent us by PM! Indeed an important issue you point out here: we have chosen a fundamentally different approach than all other 'minesweeper-in-name-only' games available that are based on pure luck. At this moment BitcoinMinesweeper.com is the only real minesweeper-game on the internet where you can play for bitcoins. |

Nice to see so many of you are interested to join the alpha test! We cannot invite everyone,
but we have just sent out a new batch of invites and will keep on doing so until the public launch.
Speaking of which, we don't want to communicate an exact date yet, but we want you to know
that the public launch will be soon.
So even if you have not received an invite; stay tuned and we hope to welcome you soon on
BitcoinMinesweeper.com!
Cheers,
